A. Bai Yueguang Said Nothing And Just Cried For The Substitute B. Chapter 13

Chapter 13 Not an Omega, but a Beta

The auction concluded.

Wēn Xǔ returned with his hands tucked into his pockets, lifting his chin toward Wēn Sòng, his tone carrying a hint of nonchalance. “Let’s go.”

He then glanced at Guān Suī and jutted his lip out. “CEO Guān, our attitudes today were clear, so you should understand what we mean. When you go back to explain, we can mutually shift the blame and responsibility. For example, you can say I already have someone in mind, or that I’m not a good O.”

Wēn Sòng: “……….” That’s harsh.

To ensure the blind date fails, he immediately resorts to slandering himself.

Sometimes, Wēn Sòng truly felt that Wēn Xǔ didn’t seem like an Omega; he seemed more like an Alpha.

Guān Suī said flatly, “I didn’t come to the auction for a blind date.”

Wēn Xǔ nodded indifferently. “Suits me perfectly.”

Their thoughts were a case of “striking a chord.”

Both were “forced” to come by their families.

And now, it was obvious they hadn’t hit it off.

Since the parties involved didn’t fancy each other, no amount of family pressure would help. Furthermore, Wēn Xǔ was the family’s darling, and Old Master Wēn certainly wouldn’t genuinely force him to marry Guān Suī.

Not to mention, if Guān Suī was unwilling, no one could force the marriage.

Appearing at the auction simultaneously was merely going through the motions, avoiding offending the elders, and having a bit of fun while they were at it.

Before leaving, Wēn Sòng politely nodded to Guān Suī as a greeting, then followed behind Wēn Xǔ to depart.

After the auction ended, everyone left in an orderly fashion.

They were VIPs and didn’t need to use the main entrance with the others.

“Was it terrifying to be alone with Guān Suī?” Wēn Xǔ asked, walking alongside Wēn Sòng and glancing sideways at him.

Wēn Sòng hadn’t expected Wēn Xǔ, who rarely spoke to him, to proactively ask such a meaningless question.

He thought about some of Guān Suī’s behavior in the private room and his rather gentlemanly attitude of not forcing others. Although there was a Sense of Oppression and suffocation, their interaction hadn’t reached a truly uncomfortable or unnatural point. As long as he didn’t offend the other party, nothing would happen.

However—

Wēn Sòng believed it was best not to be in the same space if possible.

He was still in the consideration phase.

Seeing the other person always made him uncontrollably recall what had happened that night.

“It was alright,” he replied.

Wēn Xǔ looked utterly shocked, immediately thinking he was lying.

But then he considered Wēn Sòng’s obedient, honest nature as a Beta, and his general quietness. Even if Guān Suī was venomous, or if his Alpha Pheromone crushed down, the other party wouldn’t notice.

Wēn Xǔ had strong opinions about Guān Suī, and he immediately launched into a tirade, devaluing him completely.

“Guān Suī has a terrible temper. He’s nasty, venomous, petty, vengeful, cold-blooded, heartless, and conscienceless. If you ever run into him in Suicheng, you must turn around and hail a taxi immediately. He never shows affection for Os or Bs. He seems like he’s asexual.”

“And he’s a huge germaphobe.”

“The reason I hate him is because back when we were studying, I had just differentiated into an Omega. Once, I couldn’t control my Pheromone and accidentally let some out. It wasn’t my heat, so it wouldn’t affect anyone, but he went over with a black face and sprayed Pheromone air freshener.”

“Seriously, I was speechless. It would have dissipated in a moment, but he acted like he’d been contaminated by something dirty.”

“He’s so pure, he’s so amazing!”

“He better not get involved with an Omega in this lifetime!”

“Heh heh! Wait! He’s asexual, he can’t get involved with an Omega.”

Wēn Sòng, who had already provoked Guān Suī: “”

Hearing the words “asexual” and “germaphobe” from Wēn Xǔ, he suddenly didn’t know whether to agree.

He had no prior sexual experience.

He wondered if an Alpha needing sex seven times a night during their Rut Period was considered normal.

But based on the relevant knowledge he had gathered online, being asexual was not this situation.

And—

Guān Suī hadn’t gotten involved with an Omega; he had gotten involved with a Beta.

Wēn Sòng didn’t want to share his impression of Guān Suī, only offering a very sincere and serious remark: “You’re also very vengeful.”

Wēn Xǔ crossed his arms, not refuting, and snorted. “Is this your first day knowing me? I am extremely vengeful.”

After speaking, he suddenly stopped.

He looked at Wēn Sòng with a strange expression.

This made Wēn Sòng feel a little bewildered. He reached up to touch his face and asked in confusion, “Is there something on my face?”

Wēn Xǔ withdrew his gaze and quickened his pace forward.

As he walked, he muttered, “Damn it, why am I talking so much to someone I dislike?”

The disliked Wēn Sòng, who had been left behind: “………..”

The other party’s hot and cold attitude was baffling.

It seemed,

Wēn Xǔ, this Omega, wasn’t as annoying as he had imagined.

Since the auction was over, Wēn Sòng didn’t need to leave with Wēn Xǔ.

Seeing the person quickly disappear into the crowd, he decided not to look for him anymore. He turned his foot and headed toward the north exit.

Unexpectedly, just two steps later, someone called out to him from behind.

“Young Master Wēn.”

This surname was not common in Suicheng. Wēn Sòng immediately stopped, turned sideways, and saw a Beta wearing a black suit and silver-rimmed glasses nodding at him two steps away.

The person was holding a gift box.

He walked step by step toward Wēn Sòng’s location.

“Hello, is there something I can help you with?” Wēn Sòng asked.

Assistant Jin nodded slightly and handed out the gift box.

“My boss asked me to give this to you.”

Wēn Sòng looked down at the long gift box being offered. The surface pattern was intricate and complex, embroidered stitch by stitch. He didn’t know what treasure was inside.

The contents must be expensive. He didn’t take it, instead raising his eyes to look at the Beta in front of him, who exuded an aura of professionalism.

“Who is your boss?”

Assistant Jin recalled Guān Suī’s instructions and did not answer directly. “Our boss said that once you accept the item, you will know his identity.”

Wēn Sòng wanted to refuse, but the other party saw his intention and simply shoved the gift box into his arms, the action clean, swift, and rough.

“I have other matters to attend to. I’ll take my leave.”

After speaking, he bowed politely before departing.

Wēn Sòng: “………..”

He looked down at the long gift box in his arms.

He had a vague guess in his heart.

This item was likely a product from the auction. The gift box clearly looked like it was meant for a necklace or an accessory.

He opened the lid.

Sure enough.

Inside lay a gradient blue twin-fish jade pendant.
